The Homestead Credit Bill
New homestead tax credit for disabled veterans introduced in ND
The homestead credit certification and disabled veterans' credit; to provide for retroactive application; to provide an effective date; and to provide an expiration date.
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would lower property taxes for owners who live in their home and give extra credit to disabled veterans, applying retroactively.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Homeowners could see a smaller tax bill, and disabled veterans would get extra relief, but the state would need to fund the cuts, so taxpayers should watch the budget debate.
